riscv-profiles VS duckduckgo-locales

Ssstrict is supposed to address the undefined behaviour problem, or at least it'll make undefined instructions actually trap.

>there are a lot of incompatible ISA implementations of RISC-V

This is common FUD.

In reality, most chips in the market, including all known application processors, follow the RVA profile[0] spec.

So do Linux distributions.

The bit manipulation [0] extension has been ratified for a while now and is part of the RVA22 application extension profile [1].

You can already buy SOCs that support it, e.g. vision five 2 and star64.

Interestingly the risc-v vector has it's own popcount instructions for vector registers/register masks. This is needed, because the scalable architecture doesn't guarantee that a vector mask can fit into a 64 bit register, so vector masks are stored in a single LMUL=1 register. This works really well, because with LMUL=8 and SEW=8 you get 100% utilization of the single LMUL=1 vector register.

Another interesting thing is that the vector crypto extension will likely introduce a element wise popcount instruction.

That's why we have RISC-V profiles.

Yeah more or less. They now have RISC-V Application Profiles which are basically minimum requirements for "application processors" - essentially devices like phones where you might want to distribute binary apps.

The Profiles spec which includes RVA22 was finally ratified[0] last week.

Context: RISC-V profiles spec got ratified last week.

Yeah unfortunately there isn't really a great place that lists all the extensions with links and ratification status.

But anyway there is a sort of standard set of extensions that "application processors" (I guess CPUs that want to run precompiled code) should support:

The 22 indicates the year.

Ah, you're right: https://github.com/riscv/riscv-profiles/blob/main/profiles.a...

That's good to see. (Boy, it's really hard to find info about RISC-V profiles on Google. It just seems to ignore all the letters and numbers.)

There's fraud and embezzlement in non-profits all the time. Just entering that in a search engine shows tons of examples: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=fraud+and+embezzlement+in+n...

When I was involved in scouts this was a thing as well; not even always due to malice, sometimes also due to incompetence and/or inattention.

Yea caught me, I self reported to try and trick everyone. Jokes aside my comment was based on net neutrality if you don’t remember https://duckduckgo.com/?q=net+neitrality+bot+comments

Some of the stuff that really chipped at our privacy as our isps got to sell our dns pings to advertisers and social media. Have a good day citizen.

AI Chat is separate from the search engine. On the search engine we have DuckAssist, which is currently grounded in Wikipedia (more sources coming): https://duckduckgo.com/?q=what+is+the+stoichiometric+ratio+b...

that one is good, but I detest keyboards with their own magic little dongle since it's a damn fine thing to misplace

I'm surprised OP didn't enjoy https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/surface-ergonomic-keyboard... which is currently listed as out of stock but I dunno if that means "permanently" or what, but they seem to be available via 3rd party channels

Its "klacking" aside, pour one out for https://duckduckgo.com/?q=microsoft+natural+elite+keyboard&t... which I loved, although I'll be straight that I love the Surface Ergonomic better because I think its keytravel is much, much nicer and no weirdo + shaped cursor keys, the inverted T like $diety intended

Sculpture can be tactile. I know it's not purely tactile, but thinking of it in that way is becoming a lot more common (eg at the Louvre). And then I went to find a URL for the tactile dome at the Exploratorium in San Francisco (https://www.exploratorium.edu/visit/tactile-dome) and it turns out there are lots of tactile galleries now:
